SP International Property Developers is the international development arm of the Shapoorji Pallonji Group, the Indian conglomerate founded in 1865.

In the Gulf, SP International’s construction track record includes the Fairmont Bab Al Bahr Hotel and Marriott Hotel in Abu Dhabi, DAMAC Park Towers in Dubai, the Sultan Qaboos Palace in Muscat, and the Warner Brothers Hotel in Abu Dhabi.

In Dubai, SP International properties are RERA-registered and delivered under the emirate’s regulatory framework.

For Buyers

Imperial Avenue sits on Burj Khalifa Boulevard, one of the Middle East’s best-known addresses. Residents have panoramic views of the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Canal, with Dubai Mall, dining, and entertainment close by.
With AED 1.4 billion in backing from international financiers including London’s Hayfin Capital and UAE’s Commercial Bank International, Imperial Avenue is not a small speculative entry. It is SP International’s Dubai debut with serious capital behind it.
Market Analysis
SP International comes into Dubai development with a credibility advantage that a new developer cannot manufacture: 160 years of engineering and construction history. Although the company is new to Dubai as a developer, the Shapoorji Pallonji name has been active in the UAE as a contractor for decades, with projects such as Fairmont Bab Al Bahr and DAMAC Park Towers.
Imperial Avenue’s location on Burj Khalifa Boulevard in Downtown Dubai puts it among the city’s most sought-after addresses, alongside Emaar’s own Downtown offerings. The project has attracted buyers from over 60 nationalities, with sales expected to reach approximately AED 2 billion.
SP International’s arrival also reflects the growing interest from major international construction groups in moving into branded development in Dubai, using engineering depth as a point of difference in a crowded luxury market.
